It’s been a bumpy ride for Boston College quarterback Thomas Castellanos all season, and things finally came to a head on Saturday afternoon. After Syracuse scored 21 unanswered points in the first half and TC went down with an apparent minor injury, Grayson James came in for Boston College and brought the offense some new life, bringing the Eagles to an eventual 37-31 win over the Orange. This sudden success now begs the question: would BC’s offense be better served with James under center instead of Castellanos?
Castellanos’s shortcomings are well-known at this point. He struggles to pass the ball downfield and often takes bad sacks without throwing the ball away.
